And so one of the toughest weeks so far I've had in school has passed, with 3 tests, a presentation, and a preparation for an experiment all completed. Its time for some good old R&R, and a whole lot of rest. Spent a couple of late nights working everything out, but I guess its paid off in a way. Apologies for not keeping up the posting every Monday.
So a couple of highlights over the past week: the 3 tests were rather smooth sailing and weren't as difficult as I thought it was. In fact I've already gotten the results for my abnormal psychology test back, and I've scored a 41/50, which I'm pretty satisfied with.
Besides that, I've been working hard on a presentation that was exceptionally difficult, as the combined presentation with all 4 of us has to last 95 minutes, including discussion time for the class. I was rather stressed by that and spent quite some time reading the article I was presenting on and working on the slides. It went magnificently well in the end, being rather entertaining and informative!
Lastly, in a separate group project, my friends and I went to the Science Library and then Kent Ridge Park to film some footage that we needed for the conducting of an experiment on Tuesday. Of course, since I was the only one with a car I was tasked to drive. On top of that, I was the one featured in the video as well. But as with all my academic exploits, this one went well too, and when we showed the tutor our footage he was extremely pleased with it.
Because of all this, this week especially I felt exceptionally vulnerable and stressed, and I must say that God has been faithful, keeping with me even though in periods like these I may have lost sight. With Vanessa having some problems of her own, and me helping her shoulder them as well, the additional pressure did stretch me quite a bit. But one thing I do know, it is shaping me in a way to be more resilient and able to guide and protect her in the days to come, and its strengthening our relationship. Its a rather new experience sharing the pain of someone you love, yet having to suppress that pain to be strong for her. Its unlike anything I've ever tried, much more difficult than any challenge so far. But I'll cope with it! =D
With that said, it feels like we've been together for an extremely long time, even though its only been 2 months. That shows the strength of our relationship right now, and I'm very pleased. =) O levels are looming, and I'm praying for God to keep sustaining her and revealing His blessings to her each and everyday.
